The annoying noise and wasted space of many shredders around an office when you can just dump your papers down a chute to a monster shredder in the basement. No waiting or having to feed it only 5 papers at a time.-- sartep, Jul 07 2004 My (large, open-plan) office has bins for secure waste placed at intervals around the room, which are emptied regularly, the contents taken away for shredding. Halfway there.-- angel, Jul 07 2004 Office goat?-- FarmerJohn, Jul 07 2004 ditto angel.-- DrBob, Jul 07 2004 You don't work in my office do you? Coz that would be *too* much.-- angel, Jul 07 2004 I have that as well angel. I'm sat in the corner under the big greek flag...-- MikeOliver, Jul 07 2004 Like the 'Memory Holes' in Orwell's 1984.-- oneoffdave, Jul 07 2004 //I have that as well angel.//What, [DrBob] in your office?-- angel, Jul 07 2004 Perhaps! What does he look like!-- MikeOliver, Jul 07 2004 He's the busy looking one who does all the work in the office whilst you lot muck around on the 'bakery all day.-- DrBob, Jul 07 2004 I thought that the point was to watch the paper disappear?-- gnomethang, Jul 07 2004 Monsters, Inc. had that.-- jutta, Jul 07 2004 Be hard to get those handy shreds to decorate absent officemate's cubes . . .-- boulanger, Jul 07 2004 random, halfbakery
